Endothelium and Allotransplantation
Transplantation, 2006Endothelial cells form the inner lining of blood vessels. The endothelium displays remarkable heterogeneity in structure and function. Phenotypic diversity reflects the ability of the endothelium to meet the demands of the underlying tissue. In addition to their critical role in homeostasis, endothelial cells are affected by, and contribute to, many ...

Endothelium and Arteriosclerosis
Clinics in Haematology, 1981Endothelium, platelets and macrophages can each provide growth factors that may participate in atherosclerotic lesion initiation or progression, or both. These mitogens, coupled with alternations in endothelial integrity or function resulting from a variety of different risk-associated factors, such as hyperlipidaemia, hypertension, tobacco smoke ...

A number of factors are involved in the regulation and maintenance of vascular homeostasis. The role of the vascular endothelium has been identified almost three decades ago, and a number of lines of evidence provide solid support to the role of this tissue in modulating not only vascular tone, but also phenomena such as platelet, red blood cell ...

Experimental Gerontology, 2004
One link between aging and endothelial function is the inflammatory response. On one hand, the latter shortens the biological engaged by activated leukocytes against invaders or stressing agents. On the other hand, the surveyed tissues become targets of the toxicity of reactive oxygen species, ROS.

Differentiation of endothelium
The FASEB Journal, 1995Vascular endothelial cells cover the entire inner surface of blood vessels in the body. They play an important role in tissue homeostasis, fibrinolysis and coagulation, bloodâtissue exchange, vasotomie regulation, the vascularization of normal and neoplastic tissues, and blood cell activation and migration during physiological and ...

SummaryThe endothelium is a widely distributed organ system that plays an important role in health and disease. The endothelium is remarkably heterogeneous in structure and function. One vital function of the endothelium is to maintain blood in its fluid state, and to provide controlled haemostasis at sites of vascular injury. In keeping with the theme

Development of the Endothelium
2006Our understanding of the regulation of vascular development has exploded over the past decade. Prior to this time, our knowledge of vascular development was primarily based on classic descriptive studies. The identification of stem cells, lineage markers, specific growth factors and their receptors, and signalling pathways has facilitated a rapid ...

Restoring the Dysfunctional Endothelium
Current Pharmaceutical Design, 2007Nowadays the endothelium is considered a key determinant of vascular health. NO is the principal mediator of all endothelial protective effects, due to its antiinflammatory, antiproliferative, immunomodulatory and vasorelaxant properties. On the contrary, a growing body of evidence suggests that endothelial dysfunction is associated with cardiovascular

In recent decades, it has become evident that the endothelium is by no means a passive inner lining of blood vessels. This 'organ' with a large surface (approximately 350 m2) and a comparatively small total mass (approximately 110 g) is actively involved in vital functions of the cardiovascular system, including regulation of perfusion, fluid and ...
